Jakim: Social media post about non-halal chocolate is not true


PETALING JAYA: The Malaysian Islamic Development Department (Jakim) has refuted claims that a chocolate called "Eyeglass with Candy" contains non-halal ingredients.

In a statement Monday, Jakim said the misunderstanding came about when a consumer did not read the label carefully, but spread the "information" on social media.
